This is a true story about Raina Telgemeier about her injury to her two front teeth when she was in sixth-grade. She describes in this graphic novel the pain she went through, and how she doesn't let her smile affect who she is.
This book is a true story about Raina. It all happened one night after girl scouts when Raina was racing her friends and she tripped. One of her teeth fell out and the other pushed up into her gum. She went to the dentist and they said that she would need braces. She hated that. You want to find out more, right? Then read this book!

Smile is a graphic memoir by New York Times bestselling author Raina Telgemeier. In this coming-of-age book, a sixth-grader named Raina undergoes crazy dental surgery after severely knocking out her two front teeth in a fall. Raina has to wear braces and do crazy dental surgery. She also copes with crushes, mean friends, family, and daily life. This is a great book and I totally reccomend it to fans of comics. For those of you who enjoyed Smile, I reccomend the follow-ups, Sisters and Guts, as well al the Baby-Sitters Club series. Happy reading! :D
